The Leisure class has and still is linked to ownership which can be referred to as property rights. Therefore, if this class would have any hierarchy or ranking system, it would be whoever has the most goods is among the leisure elite.  Reputation is defined by what you own, how much, and its quality. Leisure class is also in some ways made by society. I say this meaning that whatever kind of occupation society holds in high honor is usually the highest paid. This is different through history as priests and barbarians used to be dominant in this sense but now are replaced by doctors and lawyers. I would say that in short the leisure class is the class of the privileged or the wealthy, anyone who has an abundance of goods could be part of this class.
